Publisher's summary

Princess Elveena has never seen a dark elf in her life.

As a princess of the light of elves, their two kinds have been separated since before her birth. When a royal messenger arrives inviting them to a ball hosted by the king of the dark elves, Elvie knows she cannot pass up on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even after the warnings from her father, Elvie knows this will be a night she’ll never forget.

She expected to end the night with sore feet from the endless hours of dancing…not to be engaged to the king himself!

Trapped in this new kingdom, Elvie knows she must make the most of her new situation. With each passing day, she learns that King Arkain is not what she thought a dark elf would be like. Sure, he is mean and beastly compared to the males she is used to, but Elvie quickly finds that to be the reason he excites her so much.

As the threat of war looms, will this budding passion between Elvie and the king continue to blossom? Or will she lose herself and all that she loves in the process?

Pretty good over all

I felt as if things came together really fast in the end. Felt rushed. But over all I enjoyed the listen and will definitely be reading the next book.

The elf life

At first I was thinking this was going to be just like every other bs book about elf’s but. Nope it was vulgar and steamy I loved it

I Think Fanfiction Has Ruined Me

I don’t often find myself indulging in official published novels, however it was a decent listen as an audiobook.

Great story

First, let me say that I love Will’s panty-melting voice. Holly also did a great job with narration. The storyline was interesting and unique. Wonder if there will be a book 2?

Fierce women. Sexy, fun escapism

Enjoyed this story more than expected. Strong performances and loved when Hollie and Will voiced other characters. Would recommend

Worth the listen

I was skeptical of this story as it’s not my normal reads but I ended up loving it. You could really feel what the characters are going through. The narration and details were amazing. Although it would have been better if the narrators read their respective rolls even in the other characters POV that way it would feel more realistic and consistent with the voices. But overall they did a good job in trying to portray the opposite gender with their own voice.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Sometimes I feel like the kind of books I’m drawn to all seem to blend together into one because I can’t tell them apart anymore. I do like certain tropes, but sometimes the actual stories aren’t different enough to make the books memorable on their own. That aside, even though this book has tropes I enjoy, there was a story that stuck out. And there was a good amount of spice, which doesn’t hurt! 😉

Also, the narrators did a great job! Kudos to them!
